Well done Paul!

 

I see that CP's barbelling strategy now includes a couple of hours pre-trotting to make sure he doesn't blank, might that be to avoid any Sun newspaper headlines? Our intrepid reporters will find a story.

Ah, rumbled!! - though in truth last night I was trotting a swim that looked decidedly 'chubby' the problem was getting a trot down to it before the minnows and or the micro roach and dace got to the bait!

Thanks Rusty Probably my one and only barbel session this year, I've spent too much time chasing crucians and tench!

 

I too did a bit of trotting prior to settling down with the barbel rods - managed a couple of small roach, and a couple of trout, one of which was just too big to be dinner sized !

Well done Paul lovely barbel!
